Abstract:
A graphical method for exactly computing the stabilizing loop gain and delay ranges was proposed [Le BN, Wang Q-G, Lee T-H. Development of D-decomposition method for computing stabilizing gain ranges for general delay systems. J Process Control 2012] for a strictly proper process by determining the boundary functions which may change system׳s stability. A bi-proper process is rare but causes great complications for the method, due to the new phenomena that do not exist for a strictly proper process, such as a non-zero gain at infinity frequency, which may cause infinite intersections of boundary functions within a finite delay range. This paper addresses such a kind of processes and develops a general method that can produce the exact and complete set of the loop gain and delay for closed-loop stabilization, which is hard to find with analytical methods.
